Trump signs order freezing aid to South Africa
Trump signed an executive order that freezes all aid to South Africa during a closed press event Friday.
The order also states that "the United States shall promote the resettlement of Afrikaner refugees escaping government-sponsored race-based discrimination, including racially discriminatory property confiscation."
Trump's new executive order references the Expropriation Act that was signed by South African President Cyril Ramaphosa.
Trump has previously threatened to halt funds to South Africa, claiming white South Africans are being mistreated by the nation's post-apartheid government.
DOGE leader Elon Musk has also repeatedly accused his country of birth's government of being anti-white.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio accused South Africa of "anti-Americanism" and said he wouldn't attend the G20 in South Africa because of it.
